Gypsophila paniculata

Growing Guide, Production Protocols, and Danziger Series Overview

Cultivation & Growing Guidelines

Gypsophila paniculata, commonly known as ‘Baby’s Breath’, is a classic perennial from the Caryophyllaceae family, best known for its airy clouds of tiny white or pink flowers. It thrives in full sun, well-drained soil, and moderate fertility, offering excellent drought tolerance and long vase life. Widely used in floral arrangements, mass plantings, and cottage gardens, Gypsophila paniculata brings softness, structure, and volume to both landscapes and cut flower programs.
Stick cuttings promptly, keep 70°F (21°C), pH 5.8–6.2, EC 0.8–1.0. Feed gradually, fungicide at sticking and week 2; no pinch required.
